  • The Urban Village: a Real Or Imagined Contribution to Sustainable Development?
    The Urban Village: A Real or Imagined Contribution to Sustainable Development? Mike Biddulph, Bridget Franklin and Malcolm Tait Department of City and Regional Planning, Cardiff University July 2002 The research upon which this report is based was kindly funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). 1 Background A number of development concepts have emerged which claim that, if achieved, they would deliver more sustainable urban environments. Specifically these concepts seek to transcend typical patterns of development, and instead capture and promote a different vision. Such concepts include the compact city (Jenks et al, 1996), the polycentric city (Frey, 1999), the urban quarter (Krier, 1998), the sustainable urban neighbourhood (Rudlin and Falk, 1999), the urban village (Aldous, 1997), the eco-village (Barton, 1999), and the millennium village (DETR, 2000). Gaining acceptance for these concepts and translating them into practice has, however, proved more difficult, and the only one which has resulted in any significant number of built examples is the urban village. Despite the proliferation of developments under the urban village rubric, little academic research has been conducted into the phenomenon. The main exception is the work of Thompson-Fawcett (1996, 1998a, 1998b, 2000), who has investigated the background and philosophy of both the urban village and of the similar New Urbanism or Traditional Neighbourhood Development (TND) movement in the US. Her empirical work in the UK is limited to two case studies, the location of one of which is also the subject of a less critical paper by McArthur (2000). Both Thompson-Fawcett and commentators on the TND argue that the thinking behind the respective concepts is utopian, nostalgic, and deterministic, as well as based on a flawed premise about contemporary constructions of community (Audirac and Shermyen, 1994, Thompson-Fawcett, 1996, Southworth, 1997).

  • Small-Town Urbanism in Sub-Saharan Africa
    sustainability Article Between Village and Town: Small-Town Urbanism in Sub-Saharan Africa Jytte Agergaard * , Susanne Kirkegaard and Torben Birch-Thomsen Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management, University of Copenhagen, Oster Voldgade 13, DK-1350 Copenhagen K, Denmark; [email protected] (S.K.); [email protected] (T.B.-T.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In the next twenty years, urban populations in Africa are expected to double, while urban land cover could triple. An often-overlooked dimension of this urban transformation is the growth of small towns and medium-sized cities. In this paper, we explore the ways in which small towns are straddling rural and urban life, and consider how insights into this in-betweenness can contribute to our understanding of Africa’s urban transformation. In particular, we examine the ways in which urbanism is produced and expressed in places where urban living is emerging but the administrative label for such locations is still ‘village’. For this purpose, we draw on case-study material from two small towns in Tanzania, comprising both qualitative and quantitative data, including analyses of photographs and maps collected in 2010–2018. First, we explore the dwindling role of agriculture and the importance of farming, businesses and services for the diversification of livelihoods. However, income diversification varies substantially among population groups, depending on economic and migrant status, gender, and age. Second, we show the ways in which institutions, buildings, and transport infrastructure display the material dimensions of urbanism, and how urbanism is planned and aspired to. Third, we describe how well-established middle-aged households, independent women (some of whom are mothers), and young people, mostly living in single-person households, explain their visions and values of the ways in which urbanism is expressed in small towns.

  • CREATING LIVABLE ASIAN CITIES Edited by Bambang Susantono and Robert Guild
    CREATING LIVABLE ASIAN CITIES Edited by Bambang Susantono and Robert Guild APRIL ASIAN DEVELOPMENT BANK Book Endorsements Seung-soo Han Former Prime Minister of the Republic of Korea Creating Livable Asian Cities comes at a timely moment. The book emphasizes innovative technologies that can overcome challenges to make the region’s cities better places to live and grow. Its approach encourages stronger urban institutions focused on all people in every community. The book will inspire policy makers to consider concrete measures that can help cities ‘build back better,’ in other words, to be more resilient and able to withstand the next crisis. In the post-pandemic period, livable Asian cities are a public good, just as green spaces are. Following this credo, however, requires Asia to invest in creating livable cities so they can fulfil their potential as avenues of innovation, prosperity, inclusiveness, and sustainability. In this book, Asian Development Bank experts map the challenges facing cities in the region. Its five priority themes—smart and inclusive planning, sustainable transport, sustainable energy, innovative financing, and resilience and rejuvenation—illuminate a path for urbanization in Asia over the next decade. This book will lead us to the innovative thinking needed to improve urban life across the region. Maimunah Modh Sharif Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director, United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) Creating Livable Asian Cities addresses various urban development challenges and offers in-depth analysis and rich insights on urban livability in Asia from an urban economics perspective. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is well-placed to review the investment needs of cities that will contribute to sustainable development.

HOWARD* RBAN land use planning, as the phrase is used in this paper, refers U to the planning of the entire urban physical environment in terms of the location (pattern, arrangement, interrelationships) and the quality (density, bulk, design) of all the land uses that comprise a "city." Such planning is comprehensive in coverage: all of a metropolitan area, or at least all of a single city or county's area of jurisdiction. Undertaken not only for, but also in behalf of, an entire urban community, it is almost by definition a governmental activity, since only a governmental unit is formally designated ("with the consent of the governed") to represent the totality of interests within its jurisdiction.' Urban land use planning is only one phase of the process through which our cities grow and change their shape and form.

Muth Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c1238 Chapter pages in book: (p. 271 - 299) PART 111 Consumer Assets The Distribution of Population Within Urban Areas RICHARD F. MUTH INSTITUTE FOR DEFENSE ANALYSES I Most papers on the subject of investment are concerned with how much of it takes place. This one, however, is primarily interested in where investment in housing occurs. More precisely, it is concerned with the distribution of population within urban areas, especially the distribution of population between the central city (the largest political city) and its suburbs, and the total amount of land used by the urban area. One of the most striking phenomena of recent years has been the relatively large growth in population of the suburban parts of urban areas and the accompanying rapid increase in land area used for residential and other urban purposes. It is not generally realized, however, that the outer parts of central cities have tended to grow at greater relative rates than those parts closest to the city center. In many popular and some scholarly discussions of urban growth and related problems, the rapid growth of the outer parts of urban areas of recent years is viewed as haphazard or capricious and unplanned, implying that itis necessarily bad.

  • Review of NCES School Locale Tabulation and Analysis. Technical
    based on those locale data may be unreliable – depending on the magnitude of the assignment error. This is likely to occur, at least in part, because CCD school locale classifications carry over into other NCES surveys. In other words, if a school is not assigned as City in CCD, it will not be assigned as City in other NCES surveys. This practice is designed to offer consistency across NCES surveys, but the disadvantage is that it also has the potential to reproduce non-sampling error from one source to another. This is equally true for school district locale assignments, since district locales are coded according to the assignments given to the district’s schools. Less obvious, but equally important, is the use of school locales as a sampling stratifier in surveys like NELS, SASS, and ECLS to insure samples adequately represent schools from all types of geographic areas (McMillen, Kasprzyk, & Planchon, 1994). If locale assignments in the original school universe are unreliable, then the resulting samples could be compromised as well. These issues might be less of a concern if educators and researchers didn’t use the locale data – but they do. Locale comparisons Geographic classifications of school location saturate the education literature, and a variety of education journals cater specifically to urban and rural researchers. From general comparisons of school counts (Hoffman, 1999a; Hoffman 1999b; Bandeira de Mello, 2000), to detailed consideration of the amount of time elementary students spend on core academic subjects (Perie, Baker & Bobbit, 1997), educators have persistently compared the conditions of schooling on the basis of school location.
